Becoming an "Official Selection" means your entry passed through the first judging stage,
 (DID NOT get rejected) now being able to go in front of the AWARD judges to
 decide the type of award (s) it will receive, if any.

Being Officially Selected does not mean your film is scheduled for live screening.

Award email notifications will be sent the week of September 30, 2025 and
Best of Festival winners could be invited to have their film showcased at our
2025 live event.
We also might choose a few Best Of Show and Outstanding Excellence
 
winners to be showcased on WRPN.tv


If your film did not make it to the official selection status, we encourage you to send us a request for feedback. We believe in your potential and are here to support your growth. Once you've addressed the feedback and made improvements, you can resubmit your film for free during this new season.
